Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of underwater production at great depths of hydrocarbons, in particular of oil and gas. It relates more specifically to the evacuation of solid particles which accumulate during the elimination of the water which is produced during such underwater production of hydrocarbons.
  • the configuration generally adopted is that of the connection of the subsea production wells, directly or through the intermediary of a subsea collector, to a plant. of floating production.
  • This plant generally consists of a floating unit intended for the production, storage and unloading of oil (called FPSO in English for “Floating production storage and offloading”) to an oil tanker which regularly comes to moor at a fixed location on the surface of the sea, near the underwater production field to collect the oil produced.
  • FPSO floating production storage and offloading

  • this subsea configuration can significantly increase the production of oil due to the reduction in the pressure at the wellhead by eliminating the column of oil. water in the riser to the floating production unit (the FPSO).
  • the flow from the production wells passes through a continuously operating multiphase cyclonic desander (preferably with a ceramic coating) which removes most of the sand load, including in the event of a sudden increase in sand, continuously.
  • the low-pressure slurry stream from the multiphase grit trap is "pumped" by a slurry ejector (having an internal ceramic coating to increase resistance to erosion), which is driven by a motor flow at the bottom. high pressure water.
  • Hydrocarbon, water and gas effluents from the multiphase sand trap - without most of the sand charges, eliminated by this device - are conveyed to an underwater oil / water separation station, for example in a modular device liquid / liquid gravity separation consisting of a plurality of pipes forming parallel loops (called coils) which can be installed on the seabed (separator called “SpoolSep” by the Applicant).
